1 Thessalonians 5
Berean Standard BibleTranslation
Berean Standard Bible
Chinese Union Version, punctuated (Traditional)
1Now about the times and seasons, brothers, we do not need to write to you.
1弟兄們，論到時候、日期，不用寫信給你們，
2For you are fully aware that the Day of the Lord will come like a thief in the night.
2因為你們自己明明曉得，主的日子來到，好像夜間的賊一樣。
3While people are saying, “Peace and security,” destruction will come upon them suddenly, like labor pains on a pregnant woman, and they will not escape.
3人正說「平安穩妥」的時候，災禍忽然臨到他們，如同產難臨到懷胎的婦人一樣，他們絕不能逃脫。
4But you, brothers, are not in the darkness so that this day should overtake you like a thief.
4弟兄們，你們卻不在黑暗裏，叫那日子臨到你們像賊一樣。
5For you are all sons of the light and sons of the day; we do not belong to the night or to the darkness.
5你們都是光明之子，都是白晝之子。我們不是屬黑夜的，也不是屬幽暗的。
6So then, let us not sleep as the others do, but let us remain awake and sober.
6所以，我們不要睡覺像別人一樣，總要警醒謹守。
7For those who sleep, sleep at night; and those who get drunk, get drunk at night.
7因為睡了的人是在夜間睡，醉了的人是在夜間醉。
8But since we belong to the day, let us be sober, putting on the breastplate of faith and love, and the helmet of our hope of salvation.
8但我們既然屬乎白晝，就應當謹守，把信和愛當作護心鏡遮胸，把得救的盼望當作頭盔戴上。
9For God has not appointed us to suffer wrath, but to obtain salvation through our Lord Jesus Christ.
9因為上帝不是預定我們受刑，乃是預定我們藉着我們主耶穌基督得救。
10He died for us so that, whether we are awake or asleep, we may live together with Him.
10他替我們死，叫我們無論醒着，睡着，都與他同活。
11Therefore encourage and build one another up, just as you are already doing.
11所以，你們該彼此勸慰，互相建立，正如你們素常所行的。
12But we ask you, brothers, to acknowledge those who work diligently among you, who preside over you in the Lord and give you instruction.
12弟兄們，我們勸你們敬重那在你們中間勞苦的人，就是在主裏面治理你們、勸戒你們的；
13In love, hold them in highest regard because of their work. Live in peace with one another.
13又因他們所做的工，用愛心格外尊重他們。你們也要彼此和睦。
14And we urge you, brothers, to admonish the unruly, encourage the fainthearted, help the weak, and be patient with everyone.
14我們又勸弟兄們，要警戒不守規矩的人，勉勵灰心的人，扶助軟弱的人，也要向眾人忍耐。
15Make sure that no one repays evil for evil. Always pursue what is good for one another and for all people.
15你們要謹慎，無論是誰都不可以惡報惡；或是彼此相待，或是待眾人，常要追求良善。
16Rejoice at all times.
16要常常喜樂，
17Pray without ceasing.
17不住地禱告，
18Give thanks in every circumstance, for this is God’s will for you in Christ Jesus.
18凡事謝恩；因為這是上帝在基督耶穌裏向你們所定的旨意。
19Do not extinguish the Spirit.
19不要消滅 聖 靈 的感動 ；
20Do not treat prophecies with contempt,
20不要藐視先知的講論。
21but test all things. Hold fast to what is good.
21但要凡事察驗；善美的要持守，
22Abstain from every form of evil.
22各樣的惡事要禁戒不做。
23Now may the God of peace Himself sanctify you completely, and may your entire spirit, soul, and body be kept blameless at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ.
23願賜平安的上帝親自使你們全然成聖！又願你們的靈與魂與身子得蒙保守，在我們主耶穌基督降臨的時候，完全無可指摘！
24The One who calls you is faithful, and He will do it.
24那召你們的本是信實的，他必成就這事。
25Brothers, pray for us as well.
25請弟兄們為我們禱告。
26Greet all the brothers with a holy kiss.
26與眾弟兄親嘴問安，務要聖潔。
27I charge you before the Lord to have this letter read to all the brothers.
27我指着主囑咐你們，要把這信念給眾弟兄聽。
28The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you.
28願我主耶穌基督的恩 常 與你們同在！
